Jason Reitman's Juno is the latest in a series of "indie" films whose independence I sincerely doubt. Fox Searchlight, supposedly 20th Century Fox's distribution wing for independent films, seems to have actually put money into the production of the film. It is a distinction which may seem trivial, but then again there's not much in the world of movie criticism which doesn't seem trivial under a closer inspection.
It is also a distinction...
